Programmable Interrupt Timer (PIT)
12.5.2 Stop Mode
The PIT is inactive after the execution of a STOP instruction. The STOP instruction does not affect
register conditions or the state of the PIT counter. PIT operation resumes when the MCU exits stop mode
after an external interrupt.
12.6 PIT During Break Interrupts
A break interrupt stops the PIT counter.
The system integration module (SIM) controls whether status bits in other modules can be cleared during
the break state. The BCFE bit in the SIM break flag control register (SBFCR) enables software to clear
status bits during the break state (see Figure 15-17. SIM Break Status Register (SBSR)).
To allow software to clear status bits during a break interrupt, write a 1 to the BCFE bit. If a status bit is
cleared during the break state, it remains cleared when the MCU exits the break state.
To protect status bits during the break state, write a 0 to the BCFE bit. With BCFE at 0 (its default state),
software can read and write I/O registers during the break state without affecting status bits. Some status
bits have a 2-step read/write clearing procedure. If software does the first step on such a bit before the
break, the bit cannot change during the break state as long as BCFE is at 0. After the break, doing the
second step clears the status bit.
12.7 I/O Registers
The following I/O registers control and monitor operation of the PIT:
• PIT status and control register (PSC)
• PIT counter registers (PCNTH–PCNTL)
• PIT counter modulo registers (PMODH–PMODL)
12.7.1 PIT Status and Control Register
The PIT status and control register:
• Enables PIT interrupt
• Flags PIT overflows
• Stops the PIT counter
• Resets the PIT counter
• Prescales the PIT counter clock
